Collection: HPLC Ion-Pair Reagents for Basic Samples

HPLC Ion-Pair Reagents for Basic Samples — contains long-chain alkyl sulfonate salts, ranging from sodium dodecyl sulfonate to nonanesulfonate, which function as ion-pairing reagents in liquid chromatography mobile phases. This group is specifically designed to enhance the retention of basic analytes on reversed-phase columns.

Ion-pair reagents such as Sodium 1-Dodecanesulfonate and Sodium 1-Decanesulfonate are added to the HPLC mobile phase to form neutral ion pairs with ionized basic compounds, so that their interaction with the C18 stationary phase becomes stronger and more predictable. Analysts in pharmaceutical and quality control laboratories use variations in alkyl chain length, from Sodium 1-Nonanesulfonate to Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, to optimize the separation resolution of amines, alkaloids, or other basic compounds.
